Hell yeah! Absolutely sick, your content really shows that you don’t need the top of the range tools and skill, just a shed and some motivation, absolutely love it. Keep it up.
Great table dude, weld a metal tab at the bottom of the table under the frame perhaps, so you earth clamp can clamp onto it and it doesn’t get in your way when welding! Go hard bro!
Sick video bro, you've inspired me!, I set my shed up about 3½ years ago it fairly functional but getting old, I might make some new additions and switch it up a bit. Great content!.🤙🇦🇺
When Tacking the slats in you should have staggered them, ie one on the left then one on the right. Whilst using a spacer is nice, easy and quicker its just moving the heat from one to the next to the next which causes the bowing more. Great video though. Remember people that a clean workshop is a happy workshop. Finish welding an hour before you plan to leave then use that hour to clean up, while your doing that your around for any fires that may start. Extra bonus you walk into a nice tidy workshop in the morning.
I'm nearly finished building my own first welding table with my first welder (TIG), came up with a very similar design except used 10x100mm flat bar for the top and spaced them far enough apart to fit my clamps in. Cost was around the same plus some heavy duty castors.
Literally just made a welding table in the same fashion last weekend. I even made the same assumption that I could put a straight-edge off the first one and align the slats that way. Realised half way through that unless my cuts were perfectly 90deg I'd be off, and I was! Went to measuring them off the frame after that. One small difference, I welded the slats to the frame on the "outside" edges (ie. not the edges facing other slats). This way the welds are fully accessible if a slat gets bent or damaged and I need to grind the welds off to replace the slat. Also, definitely grab a "paint and rust stripper abrasive disk" from Bunnings (or wherever). They eat through paint. I got the paint off the top of the slats in about five minutes with one.
For future, to strip the paint off the metal instead of a sander use a paint stripping wheel for a grinder, I knocked out 27 slats at 800mm for my table in about 30 minutes and that was for the whole top surface
The blue paint is designed to be welded through anyway, I don't bother cleaning it off if MIG. For the surface of the table however, those strip disks are mint.
Oh, and keep an eye out on marketplace or gumtree for a 2nd hand horizontal band saw. I sold my hot saw like yours and picked up a 7 inch bandsaw for about 1/4 of new price. It cuts easier and better and more accurately and WAY WAY quieter, and you can chuck 5 lumps in and walk away!
Another great video really enjoy the shed content. I built a welding table about three years ago with a flat top, you’ve inspired me to revamp it and build a table like yours. Keep up the awesome work 👍
It’s 100% bowed from all those hot tacks on top not the sun, doesn’t take much welding to shift steel. Oh and blue bar is weld through, don’t have to strip paint. Also RHS has a seam, should always hide the seam instead of some seams facing up, and should probably have some triangles in there. All meant as constructive criticism ❤️
Great video, not sure if its been mentioned but its bannana'd because you applied heat to one side, creating a "camber" id sugest strong backing during the welding
Loving the videos mate they are mint every vid is such good content all the time and giving me the motivation to get in the shed and do some projects to the 4b. 🤙
Mate, your videos are really inspiring. I think its because you are very relatable to a lot of blokes. I know your channel is gonna keep growing, but I really hope you keep the non-curated, under-produced vibe going. It feels like Im watching something real you know? I guess Im saying 'keep it real' ha ha.
What's the ballpark $$ on a build like this? I've been contemplating it for 12mths. I even have the exact same welder kit. Loving the shed vids mate keep em coming
You V log too much mate. Every video would be worked better if you voice over your time lapse or working content. Instead of telling us what your going to do, just film doing it and chat over that of you want. It's much better content.
Made it look easy. Might make one myself. All it needs is a shelf underneath it.
I get so keen every time you post
🙏🙏

A change is a good as a holiday!!
Should make the bottom a shelf, good spot for welding accessories/consumables

Awesome job. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld on. Keep Making. God bless.

Fab/Welding table is a must. I invested in one and love it! Gotta remain disciplined to make sure you keep it tidy and surface clean. 👍🏼

Love this!! I just started to tig up a staino snorkel and a welding table is a MUST!! I think I need to make one too!!
Oh dude that’s mint!! The table would definitely help in that situation!
Saw the truck today at Bunnings and bumped into you quickly as you were leaving, it looks mint! You will have 100K subs in no time !

I legit was near gonna run out and get them!! I had one before but I used it on the house 😓

Looking good mate! 👌🏽
Thanks mate!!
Should box in/soundproof the compressor, with a hose reel next to it. Fab skills are getting 👌

These are kind of videos that are so entertaining but don't know why 🤣 sick mate
Thanks for sharing. Next either a jib or gantry crane in your corner.

I legit didn’t think about the seam on the RHS untill I was sanding it down! 😓😓
Thanks for the tips mate I appreciate all feedback!!
Shed goals!!! Looks good mate!

Great job. Keep it up..👌👌

Mate that’s An amazing coming to read! Thanks so much!! I don’t plan on being a super published channel! Just me in the shed doing what I wanna do! 🤘🤘
Looks great , keep it up mate
Love this content mate!
Thanks mate!!
Awesome 👍
Outstanding 👌
Thanks legend!
Great job!!!!!!! I love the content
Thanks legend!!
Can you share please your dimensions of the bench stand? What kind of material it was?
Looks good mate 🇦🇺👌🏼
Thanks legend!!
Great video, just came across your channel. Instant subscribe!!!
So i have a suggestion for you.do you want to swap your engine gq truck with jeep trackhawk engine?and make it lot of power
Looks mint! 👌 Hmm measure twice, cut (weld) once 😛 It's all learning mate!
Should put a sheet on bottom of the table for more storage
lets go new vid!
🤘🤘🤘
Just curious how is the epoxy floor is handling the heat from the cut off saw and the general wear working on it
Love the videos
Thanks Marty!!
I think after the 4th or 5th load of steel you drove in the shed, was when your neighbours starting thinking you’re building a killdozer 😂😂
😂😂😂
Sick video dude, you’ve inspired me so much and motivated me to give all things a shot and also just wondering what welder you use
That’s so good to hear man!! I have a unimig 182!
@@RoamLyfe thanks mate will look into one do you recommend it
Hey mate, looks awesome.
You've inspired me to build 1 now. Is that a 25mm spacer?
What's the ballpark $$ on a build like this? I've been contemplating it for 12mths. I even have the exact same welder kit.
Loving the shed vids mate keep em coming
400 bucks he said
@@robras2850 sick, thanks man I must've been absent for that bit
Yeah 400 mate!! That’s with steel being delivered too!
Hell yea new video 😆😆😆
🤘🤘🤘
looks mint, dont weld the caster on as it melts the ball race cages, what a mess !
did you do a vid on painting the shed floor?
Yes I do! It’s on my profile!!
Nice works mate, clean shop is a safe one. You will never go back once you start TIG.
Do you fabricate for work?
100 percent agree mate!! No I’m just a mechanic on industrial cleaning gear!
@@RoamLyfe sweet, I love your attention to detail and forward planning
How has the table top as far as rust goes, given you sanded off the blue?
It’s great! You just clean with wd40 and it lasts ages!
epic
🔥🔥
What welder you use mate
Unimig 182 mate!
@@RoamLyfe awesome man I’m about to buy a welder and try learn
When is the jetski making another appearance?
I sold that thing hey!! I want another one tho 😍
Tidy
Does that mean you looked like a knob 12 months ago without all the gear? :D
Even worse back then 😅😅
Bloody, bloody, bloody! Why is everything so bloody.....
